Ingredients

  • 1 Cup whole milk Substitute: coconut milk, coconut cream mixed with water in a 1:3 ratio or soy milk. I don't recommend using oat milk.
  • 1- 1½ Tablespoons pandan syrup For directions on making your own natural pandan syrup, click through this link. Pandan syrup already contains sugar so I don't feel the Pandan Latte needs anymore sweetener but feel free to add to taste. For how to sweeten without adding sugar, click here.
  • 1 hot espresso Substitute: ½ Tablespoon of instant coffee powder mixed with ½ Cup of hot water
  • ¼-½ teaspoon pandan paste Optional- this is necessary if you want the vibrant green color. Pandan syrup on its own is too light of a green to change the color of the milk noticeably.

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Gently heat the milk over a low fire till steaming. This helps the milk to froth more easily.
  2. Once the milk is almost steaming, switch off the fire then add the pandan syrup and, if using, pandan paste.
  3. Whisk vigorously till a stable, thick foam appears.
  4. Transfer the pandan latte to a heat-proof mug. Pour in your coffee or espresso.
  5. Serve and enjoy with some pandan kueh on the side!

Notes

  • For Pandan cold-brew coffee
  • Simply soak pandan pulp (leftover from making pandan juice and pandan extract) with coffee grounds overnight.
  • For Pandan Coconut Latte
  • Froth ¼ Cup of milk with ¾ tablespoon of pandan syup (Optional: add ¼ teaspoon of pandan paste for extra color.) Pour the green foam into ½ Cup of coconut water followed by ¼ Cup of strong coffee (or 1 shot of espresso.)
